Hi Everybody,

I was wondering if anyone knows how to control the whisker width on the statistical plot. I am trying to plot a mean +/- SD type graph for a coupe of data sets. I have done this through the statistical plot using a box plot, but turning the box off. This leaves the mean and I have set the whiskers to SD. however, I have not been able to set the width of the whisker lines.

Does any body know a solution to this?

many thanks

Ben

Whisker width is same as box width. You can set in on Border group of Pattern tab.

Hi,

I've had the same problem and the solution doesn't work. If the box is 'turned off' ('No Box' in the Box Range of Box tab), the whisker will appear with minimum width (Hairline?) no matter the box width.
Another option is to set the Box Width (also in the Box tab) to 0, but then the whiskers appear only as a line.

Another solution? Maybe there is another way to make such a graph (Individual data points + Mean SD) that we are not aware of.

Thanks,

Patricio.
